"You want to be efficient?"
summary
Replans Euro2020 to illustrate how a blind efficiency drive strips purpose: proposes cutting each 11-player squad to one catcher per side, automating kicks by adapting a tennis-ball launcher, and selecting only the top four teams so the tournament shrinks from two weeks to half an hour. Claims big savings in time, money and staff redeployment but notes nothing is actually built and this approach destroys effectiveness, player experience and the reasons people care about the event.
